Persons of Interest Wanted after Attempting to Sell Stolen Phone

The NOPD is looking to speak with two subjects as persons of interest after they were seen on surveillance video attempting to sell a stolen phone.

On May 22, 2017 at around 10:30 a.m., the victim woke up from a nap while riding a charter bus to New Orleans. He then discovered that his cell phone was missing. The next day, at about 12:30 p.m., the pictured subjects entered a cell phone store and tried to sell the victim’s phone to the merchant. The merchant refused to purchase the phone after suspecting it to be stolen.

If you have any information regarding these subject, please contact any Seventh District Detective at 504-658-6070 or CrimeStoppers at 504-822-1111 or toll free at 1-877-903-7867 or NOPDTIPS@nola.gov.
